Comments:

Air - Premiers Symptomes
This is a great band from France. Most of their stuff is sometimes dancy electronic synthpop kindof, although that isn't really a good description. This album is more an ambient album than Moon Safari.

Air - Moon Safari
This one has a couple of pop songs on it, as well as the traditional Air ambient synthpop stuff. You've got to give these guys a listen. I love this band.

Nik Kershaw - The Riddle
This is his second album. One that scored him a couple of really popular hits. I didn't like the first one, or any newer ones since, as much as this one.

Nik Kershaw - 15 Minutes
This was kinda his "come back" album a few years ago. He stopped recording, but kept on writing songs for many popular artists, many of which became hits to some extent. Luckily he decided to give it another couple of go's before giving up again. He didn't get the attention he deserved. There are some really good songs on this album.

The White Stripes - De Stijl
An ex-husband & wife team. I hope they still stay together as a band. They often sport an old classic sound, kinda like a punk version of The Who. All three of their albums are great, but I like the most songs on this one.

Peter Himmelman - From Strength To Strength
If you ever have a chance to see this guy live, you will fall in love with his talent. His music is awesome, and he is very funny on stage. I love many of his albums, but this one has the most powerful songs in my opinion.
